Shannon's Tamworth Motor Show to be back in action in May 2021

The annual show is run by the Tamworth West Rotary Club, and showcases classic, collectable and show vehicles.

It'll be rolling back into the Tamworth Regional Entertainment and Conference Centre (TRECC) on May 22 and 23.

It comes after the 2020 event was canned due to coronavirus gathering restrictions, but now, event organiser and Tamworth West Rotary Club member Neville Evans says eased restrictions allow for it to be held once again.

"We're pretty excited about it, especially since we were doing a show with a focus on Australian Ford last year, so we postponed that to this time," Mr Evans said.

"We've had a meeting with the council about it, and the restrictions aren't that bad now.

"We're willing to take the risk that things are settling down and better managed in terms of outbreaks."

He said people who were supposed to be showing off their wheels at the 2020 event were all eager to finally get the chance this year.

"Almost 100 per cent have said they were going," he said.

"[Vehicle owners] typically come from western NSW right over to the coast, Sydney, and up into QLD."

For those that haven't attended the event before, Mr Evans said it wasn't "just another car show".

"It's held indoors in the entertainment centre so no matter the weather we go ahead," he told the Leader.

"There's a range of different types of vehicles, some go way back to vintage and veteran cars, or modern cars which are fast or really expensive or something.

"If you think you've seen it all before, you haven't, because we don't have the same vehicles year after year, it'll always be new."
